You have already spent a few days in London.Everyone in the group is writing letters home.Use the right form of the verbs in brackets(Present Simple or Continuous,Present Perfect Simple or Continuous or Past Tense ) to find out what Dan wrote to one of his friends.
Hi Paul ,
I really(mean) to write to you as soon as I (get) here,but I (be) very busy sightseeing,as you can imagine.I (hardly/have) five hours of sleep a night since I (arrive),but it's worth it.London is even more beautiful than I (think). I (have) the holiday of my life!
I (stay) in a very nice youth hostel not far from Madame Tussaud's. There are lots of young people from all over the world and we (make) friends with some very nice looking French girls.And we (be) lucky with the weather so far. It (rain) on the day we (arrive), but we (have) sunny weather ever since. I (already/see) the main sights,some of them even twice. I can tell you I (like) the Tower a lot,and St. Paul's is astounding. We (go) there on Sunday morning,but we (not/be allowed to) go up to the galleries while the service (be) on,so we (have) to go back there on Monday. Of course we (see) the Whispering Gallery and (check) if you could actually hear what someone (whisper) near one wall when you are on the other side of the gallery. Then we (climb) all the stairs to the Golden Gallery and we (feed) our eyes on the view. You ( never see ) anything like it , I'm sure , and I (be sorry) you ( not come) with us. You would have liked the Tower; too. I'll write you more about it , but now Big Ben (just/strike) seven and I have to meet the group in ten minutes. We (not/buy) any souvenirs yet and we (not be) down the Thames , so this is what we (do) tonight.
So that will be all for now.I'll be in touch. Take care and give my best wishes to the others.
Yours , Dan

You would have liked the Tower; too. I'll write you more about it , but now Big Ben just streaked seven and I have to meet the group in ten minutes. We did not buy any souvenirs yet and we havent been down the Thames , so this is what we will do tonight.
